Utah CB Smith Snowden on returning kicks:

“I will be. Yes sir. I’m excited. (I would prefer) a pick-six over a kick return though.”

Utah CB Smith Snowden on where he’ll be on the field:

“We’re just seeing how it plays out. Wherever the team needs me, that’s where I’ll be. I’ve come to love the nickel, but there’s something about that island.”

“We feel we have a tremendous offensive line, we have a couple 1st round projections at tackle, and three seniors inside. We expect to be very good up front.” – Whitt

Whittingham shared that Dampier has great command of the huddle, but then slipped in a “but we don’t huddle all that much” which is interesting.

“An old coach once told me, ‘you win with the players you got, and not worry about the ones you don’t’ and that’s all I’ll add on that.” – Whittingham after he was asked about Tanuvasa’s transfer.
